[Iran Conveys Conditions for Reopening the Strait of Hormuz to the US Through Mediation, Warns Against Misjudging the Situation] 1. Iranian Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf, who previously served as chief negotiator for ending the war, stated on Sunday that Tehran has clearly conveyed its conditions for ending the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz to Washington through mediators. The conflict has lasted for months since the US-Israel coalition launched its attack on Iran in late February, and the two sides remain deadlocked. 2. Ghalibaf stated that Iran has clearly conveyed its message and conditions to the US through intermediaries, emphasizing that a return to the pre-negotiation state and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz are impossible unless these conditions are met and US commitments are fulfilled. 3. The Chairman of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Rezaei, stated on Saturday that Iran has conveyed its conditions to the US through Qatar, including ending the war on all fronts, unfreezing frozen Iranian funds, and ending the maritime blockade. He warned that the US will face a more prepared Iran than at the beginning of the war, and that if the US launches an attack, US military bases and commercial interests in the region will become targets of Iranian military and economic retaliation. 4. Rezaei also stated that Iran is prepared for a decisive war. The head of Iran's security services stated that the country's hypersonic missiles have increased speed from Mach 6 to Mach 10, its air defense system has been improved, and electronic warfare systems have been developed. He warned that if war breaks out again, US ships will be attacked unless they withdraw from the Indian Ocean. 5. Iranian authorities stated that Pakistani Interior Minister Mosin Naqvi will travel to Tehran on Sunday for talks. Meanwhile, Hatem Anbia, head of Iran's Central Military Command, issued a statement on state television on Sunday, warning that if the US makes a mistake in its relations with Iran, all of its bases and interests in the region will become targets of continuous, effective, and painful attacks, without any restrictions or constraints.
